Tip # 3
Marketing!
When hiring a realtor to sell your house? An important
question to ask them is “how are you going to market my home?”
Since I work for Coldwell Banker, the company provides
several resources to its realtors on marketing a house. They are also well
affiliated with 3rd party companies like Trulia or Zillow.
So I guess when hiring a realtor, the company they are from
may matter. However, I know many realtors, not affiliated with big companies
that are extremely successful. It’s really all about how much you make with
what you got.
A typical advertising media is Social Media. It has
definitely become an increasing trend to advertise using social media, and a
realtor makes use of this platform immensely, along with other typical forms of
online advertising like craigslist. Additionally, “open houses” are great
events to get the word out to the public that there is a home being sold in the
neighborhood.
